boom?

Ok through the grapevine Stac is ok and this is good. What about the rest? I don't think they're in central London, but even so - you can never tell. I heard Mr Manning said that they've contacted all the Trinis there and it's all good - but you can never tell. Stacey? Dom? I think the latter is in France. Who else? I don't know.

I am not doing well. It's been one of those days where I hope it gets better. Could be 10x more productive. Just not.

Reading....things:

So McDonald's getting new hip uniforms eh? *ponders about local uniforms* Shudder^100. I shouldn't even begin to wax about business, customer service, design and...uniforms. Ugh. In my brilliantly structured university, the now very franchised food centre is horrific. Do these people train their staff? Smart people work in fast food too you know. One may be treated to a display of rudimentary language skill and behaviour. It's a wonder no one has gotten food poisoning yet. *knocks on wood*
The training actually goes with the quality of food. Interesting.

Yellow eh? This whole Livestrong business is such a fashion fad now. I even wanted one - for "support" to the "cause". Fuck that. Why don't you wear it on your head while you're at it? Oooh it's so cool I must have it. Please. If you really want to show solidarity donate your next paycheck, go volunteer for something. Be anonymous? Just an idea. Perhaps you think it's superficial and have actually had to deal with someone with cancer or otherwise.

That's another thing. I signed the petition crap for that Live 8 thing. Just by whim really. I wasn't going to because I didn't think it would do much. Probably won't. Baaa behaviour but worth a try. Another fad again. This time in white instead of yellow. Bob's intention is all good and a brilliant organiser mind you. Admiration for the bastard. But really? You think those G8 (oh god check the contemporary name) leaders give a shit while they try to get the US to reduce emissions (which they've refused)? A bazillion electronic signitures on a website. A few concerts where half the patrons don't really know or care about it's significance. It is with hope. Perhaps Bob, perhaps.

Just thought I needed to say that.
